Lynne and Shay's little house is a gem. We were there for two weeks and would have like to stay longer. We were given every help and consideration and warm friendliness too! I won't write any more for fear too many people will want to stay there and I will not be able to make a booking in the future!

A well furnished, luxurious annexe adjoining a beautiful rectory overlooking the Welland valley. Close to the borders of Northamptonshire, Rutland and Leicestershire we're ideally placed to visit Rockingham Castle, Rutland Water and Burghley House. It's an idyllic spot with a wonderful sense of space and gorgeous views, and as the property is all on one level it's easily accessible. There is also a tennis court on the property, plenty of off-road parking and lovely mature gardens to enjoy.

One bedroom has a king sized bed and ensuite with bath. The second room has twin beds with ensuite shower. There's a well appointed kitchen with dishwasher and a large sitting room with French doors out to the patio and garden, and a cosy wood burner. There's also a washing machine.

Gretton is a large, friendly village just a hop over the Welland river from Rutland. Well situated near Uppingham, Corby, Stamford and Market Harborough and some beautiful villages, there's plenty of places to visit. In the village we have three pubs, a sports club with multi use games area, coffee shop, post office and churches. Corby is only a couple of miles away with large supermarkets; the pretty market towns of Uppingham, Oakham and Stamford are all within a twenty-five minute drive and Leicester, Cambridge and Northampton are reachable within an hour to an hour and a half.

We had a lovely time staying here. The annexe is completely self-contained and has just been beautifully done up. Kate was very welcoming and helped us with everything we needed. It is in a delightful village with beautiful views across the valley - a lovely area to explore!

Debs2017-01-05T00:00:00Z

If you want to get to know the typical English country and family life at a high level, in a lovely environment that is not touristy, with numerous excursion destinations in the near and further surroundings for the whole family, then you should live with Kate - a better hostess Do not find it. From the farm for children to mansions, gardens and castles to clay pigeon shooting, off-road driving, horse-racing and bellringing, walking and tennis - your own place directly on the property - here you can enjoy a characterful house with a wonderful view over the valley England!

Matthias2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

A lovely home away from home. We spent most of our time exploring Rutland Water and the surrounding villages and towns. Kate made us really welcome and the place was just beautiful with everything we needed to make our trip easy with 2 children. We spent evenings playing board games for a nice change . Fantastic kitchen facilities meant we did not have to find places to eat out.

sonja2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay with our two small children. Kate couldn't have been more welcoming and even dug some old toys out of the garage for the kids as it was a rather wet day! The bedrooms were spacious with plenty of room for a travel cot and the kitchen and living space also plentiful for 3 adults and 2 kids. It was fab having a fireplace in the evenings - not that the annexe was cold - but a real fire is always nice! We had a great time exploring the area, taking a walk around the garden, the neighbourhood, via a local coffee shop and onto the kids playground. Everyone, from our hosts, to the villagers and shopkeepers was extremely friendly and helpful with suggestions of things to do with children. We went to a local farm shop and cafe for lunch which had more swings and slides for the kids to play on and delicious food to eat in and take away. The annexe was extremely warm and comfy, big fluffy towels, comfy beds with cotton bedding and clean, modern amenities. I would highly recommend it.

Ali2017-03-06T00:00:00Z

The house and grounds are lovely and is based in a quiet village, so ideal for walks and country pubs. We walked to the surrounding villages to explore the pubs and there are a good amount of pubs to choose from. We took our Labrador is happily played in the grounds of the house with the families other dogs and it was all very relaxed. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away and have piece and quiet.

Luke2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

We had an excellent stay at this beautiful home! It was difficult to leave, but we hope to return next summer.

Sarah2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Gill is a great host- very welcoming, sociable and able to give us information about the various places to cycle and walk. We enjoyed breakfast in the sun in her lovely home. We could safely leave our bikes in the car port and visit some of the many nearby places of interest. We very much hope to visit again later in the year.

Sheryl 2017-06-23T00:00:00Z

Dawn's place is highly recommended. The bedroom and bathroom were spotless. The house is lovely and in a lovely village with a nice pub just 1 minutes walk away. It is nice and quiet and in a lovely area and central for exploring Rutland/ Leics/Northants. Dawn was away from home but her husband Barry was a super host - he was there to greet us, we had a lovely chat with him and his family. He provided us with some fresh milk for a cuppa in the room and provided a lovely breakfast. We would definitely stay again when we're next in the area.

Julie2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

Dawn's house is absolutely stunning and we would definitely recommend it. Set near Rutland Water, it has great views in lovely countryside. Dawn looked after us so well, with suggestions where to eat and also gave us a route for our next day's cycle. The bedroom is very comfortable with en suite that is very spacious and beautifully decorated. Dawn's house is in a lovely village and the local pub she suggested served excellent food. We had a wonderful time with Dawn and can't wait to return. Thanks Dawn

The description online was great. when we arrived at the cottage, it was even more beautiful. The location is ideal and tranquil and the cottage is stunning to look at both externally and internally. Follow the directions from Barbara as the satnav will only get you so far! All the little touches made this place really special. Chocolates on arrival (thank you Barbara) and a friendly, smiley welcome from Barbara and her husband. They were on hand for our questions, which made things easier (esp. with children). We spent quite a lot of time in the property but it's large enough not to feel claustrophobic even with 4/5 people in. The house was warm and snuggly even during the coldest week in UK for a long time. The central heating was brilliant. Barbara was super helpful with receiving our shopping on the day of arrival and even stored it for us ... that one step above that helped even more. We really can't be complimentary enough about this place and the host. Barbara was lovely, the house was perfect and our week flew by. Thank you for your hospitality and help. When we come back to the UK, we'll be sure to contact you again. Family Quinnan.

Phil2016-02-19T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Pond Cottage was exactly what we were hoping for, and even better. Barbara and her husband couldn't do enough to help us and were absolutely delightful. From the moment we booked the cottage Barbara was available to offer help and advice for our stay. The cottage itself is so beautiful, even more so than the pictures. It is very well equipped with everything you might need during a stay here. I can't wait to return for another weekend break!

Lizzie2016-04-25T00:00:00Z

The cottage was amazing, it was so spacious and clean with attention to comfort details that made our stay perfect. It is even better in real life than in the pictures! Barbara welcomed us, both in person, and with a fridge full of breakfast treats and a lovely bottle of wine. This is a perfect place to stay and explore the surroundings and even though the weather was windy and rainy, coming back to the warmth of the cottage really felt like coming back home. Don't hesitate stay here, you won't be disappointed. Thank you.

Lucia2016-02-22T00:00:00Z

Very pretty setting. Quiet and peaceful. House was very well presented. We enjoyed staying here very much.

PAUL2016-07-19T00:00:00Z

The cottage is stunning, comfortable and quiet, and we enjoyed our staying there. Thanks to the weather we were also able to have a lovely BBQ. Communication with Barbara was great and we enjoyed our "welcome pack". Highly recommended!

Etta2016-07-11T00:00:00Z

We really enjoyed our stay at Pond Cottage. It was just as described and, whilst each previous review had given us very high hopes, we weren't disappointed. Barbara was helpful immediately and communications were easy and appreciated. The cottage is set off the road and feels very peaceful. We arrived to find milk, eggs and bacon in the fridge, with fresh bread and a bottle of wine set out for us too. What more can you ask? A perfect place for a long weekend or even a quick fornight!! We will return. Thank you

Tom2016-06-27T00:00:00Z

Pond Cottage exceeded all our expectations. Barbara had literally thought of everything that one might possibly need - the fridge and cupboards were stocked with milk, butter, bread and there was ever B bacon and eggs- a really lovely surprise. The Molton Brown toiletries added a touch of luxury as well as the beautifully decorated rooms... I absolutely fell in love with the bumble bee curtains in the downstairs bedroom- I'm definitely going to tack down the fabric and have some made for my house! We were made to feel very welcome by Barbara and her husband and I would thoroughly recommend staying at Pond Cottage. We will definitely be coming back to stay if we are ever in the area again. Thank you!

Based in the beautiful village of Rockingham, set in the Welland Valley, Castle Farm House B & B offers 3 bedrooms each with their own bathroom facilities (2 with En-Suite, 1 non En-Suite) and comfortable spacious accommodation. Each room has its very own character and all the rooms have TV, Wi-Fi access and coffee and tea making facilities.
The Blue Room is a Twin Room Facility
Guests are welcome to access the garden.
Breakfast can be served with other guests or alone.

Claire is a fantastic host, everything was perfect, and a local pub just a short walk up the road. Parking off the road and a hose pipe to give it a wash down. Breakfast was fabulous. Highly recommended.

Tristan2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

The B and B is situated in the picturesque village of Rockingham. The hosts were very welcoming and attentive. The room was clean and spacious, complete with TV and wifi. The bathroom had a good shower unit and a separate deep bath for those wishing to luxuriate. The off-street parking area is big enough for 3 or 4 cars and is secluded and safe. The breakfast (full English) was very good, served with fresh coffee and juices. The sausage and eggs were particularly good. Being full after the cooked breakfast I did not eat the selection of cereals/muesli and berries, but they were available and looked fresh. The local pub is less than a 2 minute walk up the road and served a good dinner (large tasty portion of sea bass) and I also had a locally brewed pint and lunch there. This BNB therefore ticks all the boxes and will be going back again next time I am in the area.

Paul2016-10-15T00:00:00Z

Claire is an amazing host. She was incredibly quick when we initially tried to book. We then thought we had to cancel and she was totally relaxed about that and then really welcoming when we realised that we could go after all. My only criticism is that the postcode took us to the wrong village which was a little confusing in the dark but perhaps it was our satnav? We did eventually find the house which was unmistakable from the photos. Claire greeted us incredibly warmly and showed us to our gorgeous room and we could not believe our luck. Really decent size room with a huge bed with very comfortable topper and lovely fresh white linen and beautifully soft alpaca (?) blankets on the end. The room was not officially en suite but we had sole use of the bathroom which was right next door so could be classed as ensuite really. There were lovely white towels at the end of the bed, little chocolates on the pillows and tea and coffee making kit. They had thought of everything. We got changed for our party and had to go straight out and in the morning we're given a really delicious breakfast with yoghurt and fruit salad, cereal etc followed by a full English breakfast. Claire and her husband were both so friendly and could not have been more helpful. I had asked for a taxi number before we arrived and Claire had replied immediately with a company who could were very efficient. This really is a steal for £65. If you were staying in a hotel you would have to pay much more and it would not be nearly as nice! We will definitely be going back!

Ruth2016-10-30T00:00:00Z

My Mother and I had a very comfortable stay in Rockingham on our way to Nottingham. The twin room was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Claire was welcoming and she had been helpful in booking us into the local pub for a meal. We had a tasty breakfast in the dining room before leaving. It was a shame we did not have time to look around Rockingham.

Go back to 1670's and enjoy this lovely old house deep in the middle of the country. Lots of charcter and charm. Large rooms and lots of them. Great for hide and seek. Large stone fireplaces (even one you can stand in), beam ceilings, four staircases and loads of character. Large kitchen. Lots of bathrooms. You will love exploring this old house and gardens. We also have access to a property next door that sleeps 10 if you need a really big group. Exclusive rental for a special group.

Gorgeous cosy house nestled in the heart of beautiful Uppingham. Wood burner, comfy sofas, and a lovely warm feeling. Come and feel at home in our home.

We have a lovely little house only about 10m from the main market square in Uppingham. We have recently renovated our house, to turn it into a cosy, quirky, modern home. We have an open-plan kitchen and living room on the ground floor, with a wood-burner, and our two lovely cats to keep you company (we promise, they're lovely!). We have a huge deep bath on the 1st floor, along with a drenching hot shower. Your room has a huge window looking out of the back of the house, and the most comfortable double bed we think you could ever sleep on. There is a small desk for you to use in front of the window if you'd like. There is a large table and breakfast bar downstairs if you need to do more serious work (or you can use my desk). Unfortunately, the room doesn't lend itself to curtains, so the room does tend to get light when the sun comes up. We think it's a lovely way to wake up, but don't want it to be a complete surprise to you.

We get to have our house right in the centre of Uppingham. We are no more than a very small stone's throw from the market square, where there is a great little market every Friday. There are some great little pubs all within 3 minutes walk (some much closer!), and 2 great butchers on the high street. There is a great little Deli in our little courtyard, which has a plethora of cheese, and the high street is fully of little shops. You won't find Starbucks here...!

Sarah and Will are awesome hosts! The place is immaculate and the flat is very well located in Uppingham. There are many options to eat out or to take away close by. I strongly recommend to stay at Will and Sarah's if you come in the area.

Julia2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Perfect hosts and wonderful home. Location perfect. We'd really rather keep this one secret as it is so good.

Lovely house with beautiful decor. Will was very organised with Check-in and always replied to my messages promptly. Room was lovely and has a very comfy bed! The cats are also very sweet and add a homely touch, which means a lot coming from a dog person!

Grace2017-09-02T00:00:00Z

Will and Sarah have a beautiful flat in the centre of Uppingham which my friend and I stayed in as we were going to a wedding nearby. They were away for the weekend so we had the place to ourselves but they were so helpful before we arrived ensuring we had somewhere to park and everything we needed. The flat was lovely and clean, the shower was amazing and it is located in the centre of Uppingham next to the market square with lovely shops and cafes just a minute away. Would definitely recommend their home and we would stay if we go to Uppingham again. Thank you!

Franky2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

We found Will's place easily by following the clear directions provided. Uppingham is a lovely village. We were welcomed with a G&T and made to feel right at home. Their home is lovely with a comfy bed and great bathroom. There is plenty for breakfast. We were out most of the time but enjoyed friendly company when we were in. We would certainly stay again if in the area and would recommend staying there. The village does have a church with bells though, so if you want a lie-in take some ear plugs. We were up early so this wasn't a problem.

Brigid2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

A briljant place, host, and location. Be nice and friendly to his two cats, because they are lovely. The house is cosy,and clean. We would definitely come here again.

No.4 is close to the centre of Uppingham. You’ll love No.4 because of the views over open country at the back whilst being within walking distance of the town. No.4 is good for couples and business travellers.

Number 4 Pleasant Terrace is part of a Victorian Terrace built in 1896 with many original features, wood panelled walls, tiled floors, cast iron fires etc. The honey coloured stone on the outside had been taken from an earlier building which stood on the spot as there is a sundial dated 1666 set into it. (The oldest in Rutland apparently) Curtains and Austrian blinds are all hand made from Chinese silk. With its own entrance accessed from the street by a short flight of steps down, regrettably it is not really suitable for wheelchair users. Internally the stairs to access upstairs are narrow and the garden has steep steps down.
Central heating throughout as well as a log burner which will make any winter visit very cosy and comfortable.
It has a kitchen with sink,cooker (small electric oven with 2 hobs), electric rice cooker, microwave and fridge freezer and ground floor sitting room with sofa bed which sleeps 1 adult comfortably.The TV has Freeview and a built in DVD player with a large collection of DVD's available to watch.The first floor has a fully-tiled bathroom with spacious shower and a comfortable double bedroom with double bed and Wardrobe. Outside the garden has 4 terraces,one with a pond,(so children must be supervised at all times) with fish and extensive country views of open fields across the valley. Planting has been done to maximise each season. Apple trees form the hedge on the west side and you are welcome to try any when in season (usually in September). We live next door and grow vegetables in a small plot at the bottom of the garden and again you are welcome to use any which are in season for your cooking.

No.4 is situated on a very quiet cul-de-sac in the centre of the quintessentially English Market Town of Uppingham. There are award winning restaurants, pubs, butchers and bakers a 5 minute walk from us. . Friday is market day when wet fish stalls and other specialist food retailers come to the Town.

We stayed in this charming Victorian cottage for a few nights in order to attend the races at Rockingham Speedway. Uppingham is a lovely, (small) village with all one would need (shops, pubs and a pretty square), and a twenty minute drive from the racetrack in Corby. The property is in a terrace of narrow houses, with long, stepped garden at the back which is beautifully kept and with lovely views across rooftops and fields. We spent some afternoons and evenings on the small patio, and met some of the neighbours in their gardens next door. The area is quiet and communication with the hosts was really excellent. We were able to park on the same road as the property (note that the road to the cul-de-sac is not very wide and parking can take quite some maneuvering, although there is wider on-street parking a short walk away). The house was very clean, and well equipped for us to cook and relax. The kitchen had a small (microwave-sized) standalone oven unit with hobs which although looks petite, worked absolutely fine for one shelf-worth of food. Cutlery and crockery were clean and plentiful, the fridge is a good size and there's a microwave. My parents reported the bed to be comfortable; I slept on a sofabed in the lounge, which was quite firm but I had no problems. Highly recommended for a couple or three persons staying in the area.

Jason2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

Marc made us feel extremely welcome and was very good at communicating prior to our stay. Everything about the property has been very accurately listed and provided and its all in very good working order. The neighbourhood is lovely and quite (very residential and surrounded by other similar houses) with a great view out the back from the bedroom and sitting room over the Rutland countryside. It's just a shame we only stayed for for one night!

Paul2016-11-27T00:00:00Z

A beautiful cottage in a lovely location, very comfortable stay.

John2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

My second stay at this lovely cottage. I would definitely book again.

John2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

A lovely cottage with a lovely cottage garden full of greenery of all sorts! A great place to unwind! Marc and his partner are a lovely couple!

Garry2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

Great place to stay for a few days. It was clean and with good facilities - especially useful having the DVD player and a few movies when it rained one evening. Short walk into town which was ideal.

Tom2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

Very quiet and peaceful. Wish the stay was longer. Hosts have made this place as homely as their own and seem to have spent considerable time and resource putting the place together. All the little extras (including the well designed shower/restroom) just make your day! Great heating given the cold weather and ambiance was great. Getting in touch with Marc from booking to check-in and departure was seamless. Recommend without hesitation!

S2016-12-11T00:00:00Z

We'd not stayed in the Rutland area before, but this was an absolute delight. Everything was as described or shown in the photos, and better. The house and street are gorgeous, and the garden is a perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. Uppingham itself is also very pretty, as are many of the surrounding villages. We'll be back same time next year.

Fantastic house & location ideal for Rutland Water visits. Communication with Trisha has been great& she kindly let us bring a high chair & cot for our 9 month old baby boy. The house is clean, light, airy & extremely comfortable. The welcome pack was very much appreciated! Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home Trisha we hope to be back next April.

Steve2016-04-25T00:00:00Z

The place was exactly what we were after...very good size and location only 10 mins away from where we needed to be. Would definitely recommend.

James2016-09-12T00:00:00Z

Lovely house with everything we needed. We had a great time there and enjoyed the close proximity to Uppingham.

Alan2016-04-05T00:00:00Z

Charming and comfortable house.

Hélène2017-07-07T00:00:00Z

Accommodation was for our installers. Trisha was very helpful, many times we have extended accommodation. This accommodation can only recommend, our people here were very satisfied.

Ondrej2016-03-01T00:00:00Z

Ensure you do a very detailed inventory (taking photos of as much as you can in the house) as we have been falsely accused of causing malicious damage to the kitchen. This has made me very wary of renting in this way and because I don't know how to defend myself (it's her word against mine), I think I won't be using Airbnb again, sadly. Trisha seems to be quite negative about her renters as there were signs up saying 'don't take my stuff' and when we couldn't find an ironing board, she said someone must have 'nicked it' - Overall, I'm very disappointed.

Alison2017-05-28T00:00:00Z

A lovely, clean and welcoming house. Trisha surprised us with croissants and crumpets, a lovely welcoming little touch. A really great location, in walking distance from Uppingham and a short ride from Oakham and Rutland Water. Both being lovely places to visit. A fantastic recommendation from Trisha for a pop up tea room in the village of Egleton. Huge slices of homemade cake, plentiful cups of tea and lovely ladies in charge. Will definitely visit again, thank you.

Clare2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

Trisha's place was comfy, very clean and convenient for us as we were attending a wedding in a nearby village. The 2 parking spaces were very handy too.

I offer either a bed and breakfast service for your convenience. I have two king sized beds, two bathrooms, a large kitchen diner and lounge all with a stunning view over the Welland Valley.

Words cannot describe the hospitality, beauty, (the back yard has a stunning view), and consideration Angela takes into meeting her guests' needs. I look forward to coming back and bringing my husband!

Lynda2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

Amazing home, host and view! We really enjoyed our stay in Cottingham. Angela was the perfect host, she made us feel at home and gave us all the information we needed for the area. Her home is so lovely, the room we stayed in had an ensuite, super king size bed and the view from the room is the beautiful British countryside - what more could you want? We will definitely stay here again if we're in the area.

Anne2016-07-19T00:00:00Z

Angela is a lovely lady, very relaxed and happily adapted to whatever schedule I had. Lovely comfortable room with ensuite, and gorgeous view

Rebecca2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

Angela was a fantastic host who accepted my booking at the last minute but everything was perfect and extremely comfortable. Angela was very helpful giving local directions. The morning tea tray was a real treat! Great breakfast too. Will definitely stay here again the next time I need to work in Corby and would highly recommend. Thanks Angela!

Nisha2017-01-19T00:00:00Z

Everything went very well and Angela booked us in for a great supper at the Royal George!

David2017-09-02T00:00:00Z

Angela is a lovely hostess, cooking a great breakfast for us early in the morning even though we were up before normal breakfast times. Beautiful views from the garden & bedroom window.

Karen2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Our booking experience was trouble-free, with Angela answering all our questions very quickly using text message. Angela was waiting at the door as we arrived, greeted us warmly and showed us round our accommodation and facilities. A front key was provided for our use and we were able to come and go as we pleased. The accommodation was clean and tidy, had fantastic views across a pleasant garden and quiet open countryside, and the bed was extremely comfortable. We slept well and enjoyed a cooked breakfast as part of our booking. We'd have no reservations about using Angela's accommodation again if we are in the area, or of recommending it to others. Thanks Angela for a memorable stay!

James2016-06-01T00:00:00Z

First time through Airbnb and thanks to Angela and Mary we will definitely be using it again! Lovely welcome even at gone 9pm! Extremely comfy bed, a very very clean bathroom and a beautiful breakfast were very much appreciated as well as the great conversation over breakfast. We will be going back if ever in the area again.

Breathtaking. Exceptional. Stunning. Just some of the words that describe this 4-bed converted windmill. You won’t often get the opportunity to stay somewhere as unique as this. So make the most of your chance to experience a beautiful home that’s brimming with character, comfort and convenience.

You’re unlikely to find a place quite so unique and full of character as this converted and extended former windmill near Corby.
Originally dating from the 18th Century, the windmill was transformed into a stunning four-bedroom home in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
During the conversion, the property’s distinctive origins were carefully maintained, a fact that’s evident from the outside, with the curved shape of the windmill still clearly visible.
But it’s inside where you’ll really get to enjoy this home’s exceptional and original features. Every room is unique in its own way, not least the imposing and inviting circular living room with its exposed brickwork. In here you’ll find twin sofas and a flatscreen TV amid plenty of homely touches, including a fireplace, all of which combine to make the space such a great place to relax after a day’s walking (or working).
The ground floor also boasts a dining area with a table that comfortably seats four, making it ideal for a social breakfast or dinner, work, or board games anytime of day. A doorway leads you into the kitchen where you’ll find wooden units and all the equipment you’ll need to make staying here feel like home.
Adjacent to the dining table, a set of patio doors lead out into the grassed garden, a great place to enjoy some fresh air and look back at the house you’re staying in with real satisfaction.
Moving back inside and heading upstairs, you’ll find a landing area with its own armchair that provides a great place to enjoy some downtime with a book. Also up here, the bedroom, with its eaves style roof and exposed beams that play host to a beautifully presented double bed that looks onto the exposed and curved brickwork of the original windmill. There’s a uniquely shaped bathroom too which features a modern white suite comprising a shower, WC, wash basin and bath. Just imagine relaxing in the tub, full of soapy bubbles while sipping a glass of sparkling bubbles.

The windmill in Cottingham is situated in a quiet location just 2 miles from Rockingham Castle and 3 miles from Corby. If you’re in the area to enjoy the many scenic walks, the windmill provides a great place to stay. Equally, it’s an ideal base for business travellers or touring couples needing easy access to the major towns in the East Midlands and surrounding areas. Coventry and Birmingham are to the west, Peterborough to the east, Northampton to the south and Leicester and Nottingham to the north. Whatever your reason for wanting to stay in the area, the windmill will certainly give you something to write home about.

Very nice and clean room and bathroom inside a stunning wind mill. Hosts very helpfull and nice

DAVID2017-09-01T00:00:00Z

This is a really quirky and quiet place. Perfect for a relaxing break, this mill house has a peaceful atmosphere.

My place is the best of town and country, close to Uppingham centre with views of open countryside. You’ll love this home from home because it is modern, light, clean, airy and spacious - great for couples, business travellers, families and big groups.

It's a wonderful family home with loads of space to spread out, ideal for a couple for a weekend away or a family for the week.
Bedding, towels, toiletries and basic food provisions are provided (bread, milk, cereal, tea and coffee). Ideal if staying for a night or two at short notice as everything is there ready for you to check in.
We have three bedrooms available, two double bedrooms each with en suite and the third bedroom can either be set up as two singles or a double as you prefer, with access to family bathroom. We have a fourth bedroom set up with a cot if required.
Basic fee is for one double room (2 guests) and then it as an additional charge per guest up to a total of 6 guests across the three bedrooms.

Uppingham is a great town to visit, oozing old world charm with honey-stone buildings and plenty of character. There are lots of lovely gift shops and cafes and a fantastic market every Friday. Best of all, we're right on the doorstep to the beautiful Rutland countryside.

Doms place is absolutely fantastic. Great house, well appointed and everything you could need for a short break. We were staying for a family party close by and made for much more relaxing stay than a local hotel. Loads of space, quality furnishings and very hospitable host. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Tim2017-01-15T00:00:00Z

Uni friends reunion as central location for us to travel to, with two babies in tow. Beautiful home, well equipped kitchen. Very well equipped for babies, changing table, cot, fire guard in living room, high chair, baby bath. Great communication with host. Beautiful part of the world, 15 mins from Rutland Water. Would recommend and we will hope to meet there again in the future.

Our double room in our wonderful house is set in the picturesque village of Barrowden in Rutland close to Stamford, Rutland Water, Oakham and Uppingham. Barrowden was voted one of the 25 most idyllic villages by The Telegraph, it really is a magical place. Come and see yourself.

We have a fantastic house in a unique setting. Close to Stamford, Uppingham, Rutland Water and Oakham. Great for walking and cycling we are just off the Jurassic Way.
We offer a double room with an ensuite shower room (accessed just outside the bedroom), both are large spaces and situated at one end of the house for privacy.
The main bedroom has a double bed, flat screen large TV. Wifi is provided for free. Fantastic views across the Welland valley from the bedroom.
Single mattress for an extra person available.
The bathroom is supplied with towels and toiletries.
Breakfast is offered just help yourself to tea coffee, juices, cereals and toast.
A simple cooked breakfast can be provided on request. (Eg: Muffins with eggs bacon mushrooms).
For larger parties another double room is available for £50 per night but all guests to share the one shower room, just add in extra people under additional prices to book the other double.

We live in a fantastic village quiet but also sociable there is a pub just down the lane and a community shop.
Lots of walks and also lovely area to cycle quiet and safe.

Sally and Stuart welcomed us very warmly and made us feel very much at home. Our room and bathroom were both large and immaculate, with a wonderful view over the countryside. We felt spoiled with delicious eggs from their very pretty white ducks for breakfast. Barrowden is a very attractive village, as are all the others in the area, most of them with plenty of choice of pubs with excellent food for lunch and evenings. Barrowden is also really convenient for the nature reserves of Rutland Water about 15 mins' drive away. Sally and Stuart gave us lots of ideas and advice for local sightseeing. They enjoy weekend rides around Rutland, so If cycling is your thing, they would be a mine of information on that, too. Thanks Sally and Stuart for making us so welcome.

Catherine2016-08-22T00:00:00Z

We have a perfect night's stay with Sally and Stuart. The location was ideal for us wanting to visit Stamford and Rutland Water. The views from the rear of the property were glorious. They gave us lots of advice for our planned bike ride and were wonderful hosts. My husband and I were made to feel very welcome in their beautiful home.

Sarah2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

Sally and Stuart made us very welcome to their lovely home, set in a beautiful, quiet village with gorgeous views of the English countryside. Our accomodation was a large double room with adjoining modern and beautifully appointed bathroom. We had a splendid, leisurely breakfast before our departure next morning to explore the surrounding area. Sally and Stuart were helpful and informative hosts and we had a great stay.

Put simply; we had the perfect stay! Our hosts were warm, friendly, generous and helpful and had a good knowledge of the area. They have a lovely home, beautiful, clean and in a wonderful location. The guest room is a very good size with a beautiful view to the rolling hills immediately behind the house. We decided on a cooked breakfast which was delicious, and included fresh duck eggs. We actually extended our stay as we were so happy.
